117. After the rain, the wind and clouds change - the pirates see the gods
"Give me a good fight! Let them see the bravery of the Farlangs!"
Hearing Adjutant General Beduo's words, the officers immediately said hello loudly.
The adjutant general and most of the officers were all under Boni, while the commander was Guillaume, and the Wang army and the southern army were divided into two factions to maintain a balance.
Bedot then discussed tactics with Guillaume, and more than a dozen nobles attended the battle, but in fact they talked about two options - a storm and a siege.
In the event of a strong attack, the troops were not enough, and in the end they chose to besiege, and Guillaume followed the large quantities of oil and catapults from the surrounding towns, and ordered the lords of the "Rico area" to the east, once they received the order, to support, and some siege weapons, such as small ladders, were also slowly sent to the rear of the city, but not assembled, so as not to alarm Cupid.
Cupid's subordinates kept looking outside the city, didn't notice much movement, and were a little worried, and when they stood on the city wall with Cupid, they persuaded, "Boss, if we don't retreat first, in order to transport the looted things back to the old nest, there are less than 2,000 people here, and I'm afraid of ......." “
Tan Ke, the patriarch of the Jawa clan who guarded the city together, also said, "I have earned enough this time, we will come again next time, and we will come every year in the future, I was frightened by Gaul before, but I didn't expect that these people are two-legged sheep, and we can run rampant with a few thousand." “
"The bigger you live, the less daring you are, your people and my people, one can beat the following three women, not to mention that we defend the city, the advantage is huge, our strength is equivalent to three times more, even if we really can't fight, we can also take a boat under the castle.
And if we win, we don't have to go, this place will be ours, and we will be able to point to the heart of Gaul, where the amount of barley, soybeans, and corn hidden in the city is amazing, and there is no need to worry, and the troops of Luen, who are ahead of us, share part of our pressure, and we must avoid it, and we can wait for him to fail. “
Living in a castle overlooking the ground made Cupid so satisfied that he even wanted to live in the Gallo-Rol Palace forever.
The reason why he was very confident was that the city was built on the banks of the river, with many towers and outposts, and the walls were high and thick, and the river was facing the river on three sides, and this river belonged to the Ghana River, one of the three tributaries of the Seine, and ended in the Dutch region, so there were many small boats and ferries at the bottom of the city, which could be connected to the outer rivers, and these boats had been prepared by Cupid, and if they could not be defeated, they could abandon the city at any time, so he had nothing to fear.
And if the Gallic army attacked from the front, he only had to send people to shoot arrows from high places, and the enemy would suffer heavy casualties.
Cupid, however, did not anticipate another route of aid from the neighbouring area, for the largest tributary of the Seine, which also flows southwest of Rico, is plentiful with boats.
After receiving the royal order, all the skilled sailors in the local area were recruited and forced to sail, and in the next few days, heavy rain began to fall, and the two sides continued to live unharmed.
Five days later, the boat made its way around the Ghana River and appeared behind Cupid, where it was difficult for him to evacuate safely by the time he became alert.
At the same time, the left army also stormed the city of Kuok that Lu En had occupied, and the left army was in command of Xiyi, and the deputy was Sol.
The location of the city of Kuok is not as good as that of the city of Liujiao, and the fortifications are insufficient, and after seeing the huge army, Lu En is timid, and wants to leave at night, but is defeated by the left army, he loses contact with his men, and flees in all directions, and three days later, he was found by the French, put on the torture platform, drenched in hot oil, and burned alive, and all those who did not die in battle were castrated and sold into slavery, or castrated and then executed.
A tooth for a tooth, the Franks were not ambiguous at all.
After the great victory, the left army quickly moved to join the Guilaume Division.
The time has come.
On the eve of the assault, there were 38 family totems, 112 knights, and 15,000 Gallic troops.
In the early morning, the weather turned clear, and they slowly set up siege weapons, alarming Cupid and others to go out of the city to destroy, but in this way, they had no defensive advantage, and the troops they sent could not get any advantage, and the Gallic army launched a strong attack from the main gate.
"Although the castle tower is thick, it is not as thick as a desperate sword. ”
The casualties of the four-for-one brought more and more Francois, all experienced veterans, and officers of all ranks, and the most elite troops of the civil war, each of them, were very well coordinated. The fierceness of the firefight finally made Cupid finally know to look down on Gaul.
"Kill all these brutes!" Bedot took the lead and entered the city first, even if he was stabbed in his left arm, he still did not retreat, which was a great opportunity to make a name for himself, and he even joined the small boat unit in charge of the pursuit to encircle and suppress Cupid, who had fled for his life.
Too greedy, so that Cupid became a lost dog, fled halfway, saw the front and rear are warships, decisively abandoned the boat and jumped into the shore, he is good at swimming, but at the moment the lake is full of enemies, dare not probe, gradually, he lost consciousness, life and death unknown.
After noon, there was another heavy rain, and the water rose a lot, and a lot of driftwood floated in, and it also took something with it.
Far away from here, in the open sea, a pirate dragon ship was about to move when it spotted Cupid, who was dying and holding driftwood.
"Go over and see. ”
Young and strong labor is a wealth for the pirates, and this group of pirates, who have just been defeated by the Saxon navy, put Cupidra on the ship, and if he survives, he will be brought back to the peninsula.
First of all, they took all the rings on Cupid's hands and the jewels on his belt, and when they wanted to take the necklace around his neck, they saw his face clearly, and they were all shocked, and they kept talking in their native language, and then they sorted out Cupid's face, and tried to treat him.
They first poured him some green juice, one of the herbs abundant in Denmark, and massaged him, and the next day, when the sun was rising, Cupid was finally able to let out a faint moan.
The group of pirates erupted in cheers.
"Ivan?"
This was the first word Cupid heard after coming back to his senses, and it was the only one he understood, and he knew that Ivan was the spiritual belief of the Danish pirates, as great as their "Odin the Enlightening God".
Seven years ago, he had been hired by the Duchy of Ned in the Netherlands to fight against the invading pirates, and when he slain the pirates with his sword, if they had time to say their last words, it would be, "Ivan is on top!" , words like "Great Ivan" - he asked people who are proficient in Danish.
And when a few pirates saw his face under his armor, they suddenly stopped and let him swing his sword, which was very strange.......
After thinking about it for a while, Cupid had a splitting headache and continued to fall into a coma, and the pirate ship slowly sailed north. Cupid woke up a few times in the middle, and each time he was awake for longer and longer, looking at the endless blue ocean, without any appreciation.
It was a journey to the death! He should have guessed that the destination was the continent of Russia. He thought of many ways to escape, but he didn't dare to move, one was that he was tied by a rope, and the other was that there were no people around, and the only life that could be seen and greeted by these pirates was the fish and shrimp in the sea, and the birds in the sky.
Cupid became more and more anxious, the Danes would sacrifice the captured male slaves, and he did not want to be treated like this,
